Just in: Kansas State Football has officially secured a major boost for its offense—star wide receiver Jayden Jackson has signed a new two-year contract extension, reaffirming his commitment to the Wildcats through the 2027 season.
Jackson, a key playmaker in the Wildcats’ 2024 breakout campaign, has quickly become a fan favorite with his elite route-running, clutch hands, and leadership on and off the field. His return is seen as a major victory for head coach Chris Klieman and the Kansas State program, especially amid growing transfer portal buzz around several top receivers.
“I love this program, this team, and the culture we’ve built here,” Jackson said in a statement. “There’s unfinished business in Manhattan, and I want to be a part of bringing a championship home.”
With this extension, Kansas State retains a critical piece of its offensive puzzle heading into a promising 2025 season. Jackson is expected to be the go-to target in a high-powered passing attack and a mentor to younger receivers on the depth chart.
